Oscars 2024: Snubs, upsets and Surprises

Oppenheimer dominated the&nbsp;96th Academy Awards on Sunday night (March 10) just as expected.&nbsp;The film which led the nominations with 13 nods this year, won 7 awards including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor and Best Actor Oscar. Poor Things was a close second with four awards - including Best Actress Oscar for Emma Stone.&nbsp; 
 
The ceremony took place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles with Jimmy Kimmel hosting the ceremony for the fourth time. An 'overwhelmed' Cillian Murphy dedicated his Best Actor trophy to the peacemakers of the world. Murphy's stupendous performance as Robert J Oppenheimer in Nolan's film earned him his first nomination and first Oscar win.&nbsp; 
 
"For better or worse, we're all living in Robert Oppenheimer's world. I'd like to dedicate this to peacemakers," said the Irish actor on stage while receiving his award.&nbsp;

Christopher Nolan picked up his first Oscar for direction for the same film. The film is the third-highest-grossing Best Picture winner at the Oscars after Titanic and Return of The King. Oppenheimer also fetched Robert Downey Jr his first Oscar in the Best Supporting Actor category. "I'd like to thank my terrible childhood and the Academy..in that order," quipped the actor on stage as the audience erupted into laughter.&nbsp;

Released on the same day and the biggest hit of 2023, Greta Gerwig's Barbie was hugely snubbed when the nominations were announced. On Sunday night, the film managed to win one Oscar, in the Best Song category. Siblings Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell won the Best Song Oscar for their song 'What Was I Made For?' from the hit film.&nbsp;

Emma Stone won the Best Actress award for Poor Things which also won in costume, makeup and production design. This is Stone's second Best Actress win at the Oscars. She had won earlier for La La Land.&nbsp; 
 
Stone went up on stage and declared that her dress was broken and that it happened during the 'I'm Just A Ken' performance which was undeniably the highlight of the night. Dressed in a pink suit, Ryan Gosling took centre stage and sang&nbsp;the ballad from Barbie with 65 dancers, including the composer of the song Marc Ronson and actor Simu Liu. Greta Gerwig, Margot Robbie and Stone all joined&nbsp;Gosling mid-performance.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, Martin Scorsese's Killers Of The Flower Moon earned a whopping 10 nominations but failed to win any Oscar on Sunday night. Meanwhile, actress Da’Vine Joy Randolph won the&nbsp;Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her performance in The Holdovers.&nbsp;
